Undies

I just wanted to get an idea on people's thoughts.

How much do folks spend on bras and panties? I just brought a 2 bras and a panty for $35 today at Century 21 and was jumping up and down at the bargain I got. My momma thinks I am crazy and need to buy a 3 pack of hanes for $5.99 and call it a day. What are your thoughts?

I hate shopping for bras, small chest and all, so I get the ones that come in small Medium and Large, but underwear, as my mother says, you can never have to much, I usually get three for $20 mostly Gap, Victoria Secret and Tommy, but that was a bargain for real.

OMG...that is soooo nasty...

We have a store here in Orlando called Ross...it's like a cheaper Marshall's and TJ Maxx...you can get underwear from 1.99-6.99 bras, you can usually get between 3.99-8.99. You'll pay a little more for the CKs, and DKNY.

Gosh, I gotta say allyuh shock me with this one. I knew they took the stuff back, but I thought it was examined to make sure no one aint wear it and all that. Damn, I gonna wash the stuff I just buy as soon as I get home.

At least allyuh make me feel like I aint spending too much money.

And, I aint fancy or anything, but I only wear CK, DKNY, Ralph Lauren, Wacoal and some European designers. My boobies are not small and I found with the other brands, the underwire would hurt and my shoulders would sometimes get marks. With those brands I find they work the best.

I wear Victoria Secret bras only. I found my perfect bra a couple years of ago and it NEVA goes on sale. It is $35 and I have several colors. It is very comfortable and wears really well. I don't mind spending the $35 for it because with the amount of washin it gets, they still look brand new.

Panties must be high cut. I stock up on Vicky's cotton string and high cut panties. They are also very comfortable and durable and I have every color and pattern available.

Now when it comes to the sexy stuff, anything goes. Anywhere I go and see a nice thong, nice panty, or matching bra and panty set, etc. I will buy it. That is not for every day wear though because I realize that they are just not as comfortable for all day wear as my vicky stuff.

Ok one more thing. My Mother thinks I am crazy too but ya know what. . . Mothers from the ole school consider underwear to be "just underwear". Buy your size for cheap and keep them clean. That's that. They don't view underwear as a part of your outfit and an expression of your sexuality.
